Cons: Hard to adjust height level, Not as "bouncy" as you might think!
I purchased the Bright Starts Bounce Bounce Baby Activity Zone when my baby turned 4 months.  I put it together myself,  with just a screwdriver.  It took me about 30 minutes to assemble it.  The most difficult ...

Rittenhouse Archives Enterprise Season 1 Trading Cards Unopened Box
The Common Set Kills An Otherwise Average "Enterprise Season One" Set!
by wlswarts
Pros: Decent enough writing on the backs of cards, One or two signers are good
Cons: Vastly inconsistent autograph quality, Quality control on foils, Filler autographs, Not-special chase.
How do you kill a franchise like "Star Trek?" It's easier than you might think. In fact, all you have to do it turn the franchise over to people who don't care about continuity in the universe that has already been created for over thirty years and let ...

I am a little embarrassed to admit these are one of my favorite bath time toys.   Sure, they are rated for ages 18 months to 2 years but who's to say we big guys don't like a little bath fun as well?   That yellow rubber ducky lacks a ...

Cadaco: T-Rex Dinosaur Battle Board Game
T- Rex Dinosaur Board Game
by elzora
Pros: Educational, dinosaur lovers dream, kids love it
Cons: Cheaply made dinosaurs, flimsy game "board", rules of attack ultimately unfair.

by heather200805
Pros: Form Fitting
Soft Materials
Less leaks
Cons: Won't fit my children anymore
When asked what type of diapers I use for my child, speaking honestly I have to say Huggies Supreme. I would consider myself a diaper fan considering I’m on my third child now. So if I use Huggies then why am I writing a positive review on Pampers ...

Pros: Works well, safe, tastes good, easy to use, inexpensive, no fluoride!
Cons: Difficult to find in stores.
Looking for toothpaste without fluoride in it, is near-impossible. They didn't have these inventions when my daughter was little and she was good at spitting out her toothpaste anyway, but my son is a whole different story. He will eat the toothpaste ...

Star Wars: Power Of The Force Han Solo With Carbonite Block Large Doll
The Accessory That Sells The Figure: Han Solo In Carbonite Still Underperforms!
by wlswarts
Pros: Good costuming, Generally good sculpt
Cons: Balance issues
There is something openly weird about "Star Wars" toy collectors and the people who make and market the merchandise for "Star Wars" collectors. Take, for example, the makers of the "Star Wars" toys. They will create a 12" collectible doll of Aurra Sing ...

Cons: painful. can be dangerous. 10% don't work directly from manufacturer
I'm all for the occasional practical joke between friends, or even as a way to make someone you don't particularly like a bit miserable. I am the queen of all devices that create the sound (though not the odor) of flatulence. I take great pleasure in ...

Pros: Sturdy, works great, simple, easy to use, hand rails, empties easy.
Cons: Splash guard tends to fall in at times.
These days it's really difficult to find a potty chair for toddler potty training. They have so many different potty chairs out there, some are just way too elaborate and many just do not have good reviews. Some, I notice, are overly fun that the child ...

Cons: Problematic collectibility issues (foils), Impossible to make complete set from starter decks, Purpose of reboot?

Pros: nice looking dog, great purpose
Cons: no poem inside the tag
When I was little, one of my favorite books was a wordless story about a little white mutt who longs to be a fire dog. He does not seem qualified, and the firemen put up with him but don't really give him the time of day. Then one day, he follows the ...

There are not many animals I find thoroughly distasteful, but every once in a while a critter comes along that elicits an involuntary shudder. One such animal is the scorpion. Luckily, I don't have to deal with them in Pennsylvania, but I've heard a ...

Pros: extra-tall size makes for more fun possibilities
Cons: can't stand on his own two legs
Most of the birds honored with Beanie Babies by Ty are fairly compact; only a few have long legs or necks that render their bodies a fairly small component of the whole. My favorite of the awkwardly large Beanie birds is Stretch the ostrich. A similar ...
